Fiona Preston (Author)
So many secrets. So many lies.
On a Bass Strait island, across Hobart, Sydney and Adelaide, a family drama unfolds. A decision must be made – to forgive or to nurture a grudge.
A traveller obsessed with the ocean. A conflicted archaeologist. A girl who thinks parents should never be trusted. Beneath the Wild Fig Tree interweaves 1984 and the year 2000 into a vibrant story about coming of age, betrayal and self-discovery, grief and happiness, and the luminosity of the natural world.
‘An engrossing and vivid novel brimming with compassion for nature.’ – Anna Iltnere, The Sea Library Magazine.
‘In my 20+ years as an editor, I’ve rarely seen such talent from a new writer.’ Jessica Perini, Senior Editor, Sydney
